As the title says this is just a rough idea for a game I planned about 6 months ago, but never had the experience to make (And still don't).

It's kinda based on Maple Story, with the 2d Sidescrolling MMORPG. It's set in a pretty futeristic era. You can choose from a large variety of jobs, the main ones being a Fighter, Ranger, BM (Black Market) Dealer and some others. There would be a lot more to it instead of just a lot of fighting with a few quests like Maple Story, kind of Runescape like stuff like mining ore instead of getting it from killing enemies. Of course because this game is futuristic you won't be mining adamantite or runite or mithril.

If you want more information I'll post some, but what I've posted is just pretty bare bones from the original idea. So what do you think? All comments welcome.

Kawa, I really doubt that.

But I think you really hit on something there. The world /needs/ a game with fish mining.


As for the original topic:

You need way, way more information. A proper rough outline is like... twelve pages. Or at least mine are. But I'm a rambly bastard. So maybe two pages for you.

Yeah just remember it was 6 months ago when I had this idea. I can't remember it all too clearly, and I don't know what made me think about it again.

From what I remember:
Mining for Weapons: You would be mining like iron and titanium (For electri-sword bases) and Aluminium (For gun casing) which would go towards making the shell for your weapons. You would have to buy a special battery from the shops for your weapon's power, then there would be the mining of silicon to make the processors to use the batteries energy properly.

Mining for Armour or any form of defence: Again you'd mine iron and titanium, but you can also mine coal to use in a special blast furnace to refine the ores to a greater extent, making them stronger. You can get the special batteries and silicon for them if you want them to have forcefields for even more protection.

All the different jobs have most types of weapons (I'm not limiting fighters to melee weapons like Maple Story does), so you can get basic laser guns if you're a fighter as well as the full range of light-sabre like swords.
Rangers get to accuire all things ranged and many of the melee weapons, although their use of the weapons is slow and they do less damage. hey get laser guns, bazookoids (Laser basookas), can set up traps and stuff.
BM Dealers can equip practically every weapon in the game, but in turn have even less attack-rate and power than rangers and fighters. They do have the advantage of being able to store more in the bank, and can haggle to buy for less at the shops and sell for more. They can also make special hover-boards and cars to make you go faster, and can even make the parts for a giant battling robot killing machine, although you have to be a high level to make and use the parts.
Mages get to use the FF6 Magi-tek stuff. Big defensive suits, powerful magic attacks, just can't equipmuch at all, just the basic swords and guns.

Hover-Board - Adds on a small amount of avoidability and makes player go faster.
Hover-Car - Much more expensive to buy and much harder to build but gives a lot more avoidability, speed and defence.
Titan Alpha - The first step to the giant killer robot. This is the main body with basic parts. After you've upgraded it the first time with only a single part you can rename it to whatever you want.

The quests will be various things from "Help! My kitty ran into the scientific research center! Please get it back!" to "Kill the demon dragon we created! It'll destroy the world if it gets loose!"

That's what I can remember and find (I wrote some of it in a txt document).

Oh and about the fish thing, maybe on one of the 22 different planets you can go to.
